If I may suggest something?
Well, this is a really nice idea, I am using it on my forum. However, can I give you some advice about your CSS?
I edited the CSS a bit, and I think it looks a lot better like this:
Code:
/* Newsbar Announcements - Begin */
.newsbar { background: #D6ECA6; border: 2px solid #8DC93E; border-radius: 5px; text-align: center; margin: 10px auto; padding: 5px 20px; font-size: 11px; font-weight: bold; }
/* Newsbar Announcements - End */
This way adds a border around the entire thing. Your CSS adds a border just on the top and bottom. This also makes the font just a bit smaller, and it also adds rounded corners for a more professional look.
If you like my CSS Edits, your more then welcome to add them to your post.
